WHEN BUSINESS PAIN POINTS NEED MORE THAN A QUICK FIX!

Sometimes, the pain is not where you think it is. The same applies to business! 😅
📍 5 September, Jakarta.
I started experiencing pain around my lower back, buttocks, and down my leg. I thought it was ordinary muscle pain or fatigue.
Then, on Monday, 2 November, it came back, even worse.
I've been on bed rest since then. Walking, sitting, changing positions, and even sleeping comfortably became challenging.
Imagine wanting to stand up, but your body keeps saying, "Meeting postponed!" 😂
Today, 7 November, I finally received acupuncture treatment and started feeling better. I'm grateful for the improvement and hope to recover fully.
This experience reminded me of an important business lesson:
PAIN POINTS ARE NOT ALWAYS THE REAL PROBLEM.
In health, the place where you feel pain isn't necessarily where the problem starts.
In business, declining sales, messy operations, failed ERP, or ineffective marketing might simply be symptoms of a bigger issue.
That's where three roles come in.
🎯 COACH: THE PERSON
Like a personal trainer. A coach develops YOU, your mindset, leadership, habits, and capabilities.
🔍 CONSULTANT: THE PROBLEM
Like a medical specialist. A consultant solves a specific problem within their expertise, whether operations, IT, or marketing.
🏢 ADVISORY: THE BIG DECISION
Like a trusted family doctor who understands your overall situation and coordinates the specialists you need.
Business owners face major decisions:
- Should I open a second factory?
- Should I hand over the business to my children?
- Should I bring in an investor?
- Should I close a business unit?
They need a thinking partner who helps validate these decisions, coordinate expertise, and stay involved until the strategy becomes reality.
THIS IS WHAT I DO AT PRAEVIA STRATEGIC DECISIONS MAKING ADVISORY.
I help business owners anticipate and prevent business pain points before they become bigger problems. I support strategic decisions and their execution across the organization.
Remember:
Coach → The Person.
Consultant → The Problem.
Advisory → The Big Decision and Its Execution.
PREVENT THE PAIN BEFORE IT BECOMES A CRISIS.
While I help business owners prevent business pain points, I'm learning to take better care of my own body.
Apparently, even a professional speaker needs to know when to stop speaking and start resting! 😂
🙏 A LITTLE PERSONAL REQUEST
I'd appreciate your prayers for my recovery. I've been on bed rest since 2 November and hope to regain my strength and return to my usual activities soon.
I miss networking, meeting people, facilitating workshops, and speaking on stage.
Whether in health or business, don't ignore the pain. Find the real problem before it becomes a crisis!
